Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: Stef Troll on Monday, January 1, 2007, 23:07:12 What a darts final,
Taylor goes 3-0 up Then Barney breaks back late into the game Then it goes 6-6 Then 5-5 in legs Then sudden death shoot out, closest to bull has first throw Barney gets closest to bull, then holds the throw to win the match Best darts match i have ever watched as Sid Wadell wold say SIMPLY AMAZING Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: Arriba on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 00:22:50 fuck!
i totally forgot this was on tonight :evil: looks like i missed one of the best darts matches ever! Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: Spud on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 04:06:04 What an ace match!
BARNEY ARMY! BARNEY ARMY! BARNEY ARMY!

Barnie had at least 6 darts at the match but missed his doubles which is something you don't do against Taylor. He also had a 170 checkout which was class and he also notched up 21 180's in the game. i wasn't bothered who won as i like them both but it was the best game i've ever watched Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: magic8ball on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 08:54:10 Maybe I'm being incredibly harsh, ignorant or idiotic, but I have a feeling that this match was fixed between the players.
I don't know a great deal about darts, but watched Taylor and Barney discussing the match yesterday. Darts is still in a development stage, and already has two cult heros, both of which got to the final. Taylor is always going on about how great darts is to watch, and that more and more people should get involved. Its happened in other sports on other occassions, so wouldn't surprise me if they agreed to make it a ding-dong battle to get more people interested. Just a thought. :roll: Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: Ginginho on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 08:58:32 Best darts match i've ever seen.
Glad Barneveld won, Taylor is a cunt. Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: Bushey Boy on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 09:07:29 I dont usually watch darts but did watch this, was superb, gutted taylor didnt win though.
Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: magicroundabout on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 09:08:16 tbh i can't see how you can fake a darts match.
especially when one player hits 21 180's. you can't fake those shots Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: magic8ball on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 09:12:40 Quote from: "magicroundabout" tbh i can't see how you can fake a darts match. especially when one player hits 21 180's. you can't fake those shots Fair point. Unless they're both soooo good, that they can hit them anytime they want! :? Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: Northern Red on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 11:13:50 T'was a cracker alright - and I won my bet - Barney to beat Taylor in the final 8)

he's disliked because he's succesful. deffo think barney winning is good for the sport though. taylor will be back no doubts Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: blinkpip on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 17:05:39 Good tatics by Taylor to wear orange and wind Barney up.
Change his shirt after going 3 up and lost :? Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: lebowski on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 17:33:52 that was a fantastic final, haven't seen anything quite like that for years!
in the words of the great man himself: "we couldn’t have more excitement if elvis walked in and asked for a chip sandwich" Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: STFC_Gazza on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 18:08:18 Fucking quality match but Taylor shoulda won it!
Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: hansgruber on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 19:32:03 Anyone else think that the world championship final shouldn't be decided on one "sudden death" leg? At Wimbledon they just make the buggers play until someone leads by 2 games.

At Wimbledon they just make the buggers play until someone leads by 2 games. No, we are an hour ahead of the UK as it is and I was knackered last night and wanted to go to bed!! I know he is regarded as a legend and all and still comes out with some classics but anyone getting sick of Sid Waddell and his constant 'stacker' 'understacker' nonsense? Yes Sid, we know that that is the perfect dart for the 'stacker' but you don't have to mention it every second throw!! Title: Barney 7-6 Taylor Post by: hansgruber on Tuesday, January 2, 2007, 21:06:03 I'd love Taylor to come out and say that he's got no idea what Sid's on about - that he just aims at the treble! None of this understacker nonsense.
Sid talks about 3 things: 1) Stacking 2) Averages 3) "Slack" darts over and over again. |
